The Cambridge United winger has been a regular starter on the right for the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League side since joining on a temporary basis at the start of the month.

Eades, who has made just one United appearance this season as a substitute in September’s 4-2 defeat at Hereford, has scored twice for Ilkeston and head coach Richard Money said he expected to extend the deal into January.

Money said: "Jack has done quite well up there and it’s doing him good, so he’ll probably be staying with Ilkeston and then we’ll just see where he fits in in the new year."

He added he would be talking to Tamworth to discuss Adriano Moke’s immediate future, with the Portuguese winger’s loan spell with the Lambs set to end after their home clash with Dartford tomorrow.

Money said: "I’ve seen him play and I’m going to watch him again tomorrow and we’ll just take it from there and see what Tamworth think.

"We’ve got a tight group and they’re all working hard to get into the team at the moment.

"The three that came in on Saturday (Andy Pugh, Sam Smith and Tom Shaw) did really well and pushed their claim, which is really what you want.

"We’ve got a few players out on loan at the moment and with (Liam) Hughes it’s just a case of him having the opportunity to get four or five games where he needed some football and he’ll be back with us on December 15, and with the rest we’ll just see what happens in the new year."

Due to tomorrow’s scheduled opponents Alfreton’s involvement in the FA Cup, United do not play again until Tuesday’s trip to Ebbsfleet.
